Merlin Orr Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 (edited) In my job I travel to various places and work for (sometimes) extended periods of time. What a wonderful thing to have family in every location I have ever worked all over the United States. All I have to do is post in the BE Forums and like magic a brother or sister (shooter) contacts me and invites me over for dinner or a brew and a shooting match. (not in this order..hehe) All stressed out today and, like magic, I get a call from one of my BE family (Ken Hebert) and spent the entire afternoon shooting and laughing and forgetting about all the BS around me. I really feel quite the lucky man. Edited October 5, 2007 by Merlin Orr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscbigdawg Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 I know what you mean Merlin. I would have definitey had a harder time during this deployment as well as my year in Korea since without everyone in my BE.com family. No matches or practice over the last 3 years will do that to a guy, but still. It's nice when I can run into people here in A-Stan as well as in Korea and just sit down and talk shooting and someone knows where we come from.

Merlin Orr Posted October 6, 2007 Author Share Posted October 6, 2007 In ALL seriousness...THIS is what I'm talking about. Just don't get no better than the shooting community in general and BE'ers specifically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken hebert Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 All this, and he comes out to shoot in our club championship today, dominates the rest of the competition in the division and wins the Single Stack trophy. Need to tattoo a big "S" on his chest. Hell, I bet he don't even need a gun now. Just point his finger at the A zone and says "booyah!" and two hits appear. BTW, we did get the video of Bill C doing the "run around aimlessly looking for a barricade to shoot from while the clock is running" dance. With sound.
